Bishop Martino warns Misericordia University about dictatorship of relativism

Misericordia University, a Catholic institution, invited pro-homosexual activist Keith Boykin to speak on campus on February 17 -- for a second time. In response, Bishop Joseph F. Martino issued a firm public statement disapproving the event. The university ignored the fact and allowed the event to go on anyway.

Now, Bishop Martino has issued a second statement worthy of mention. In it his says:
As Catholics, we believe there is an objective, moral Truth – given to us by Jesus Christ. This Truth is timeless, and it cannot be altered by the shifting tides of popular culture.
The bishop concludes thus:
I also offer this postscript to those who criticize me for taking public stances that may not be popular or “politically correct,” or may not agree with their own personal notions of what “progressive” Catholic doctrine should be. My job as a Bishop is to promulgate the authentic teaching of the Catholic Church to all the faithful. I will continue to do so.

  2. Great to see our bishops finally taking a stand against these apostate, so-called "Catholic" universities. We're behind you, Bishop Martino! Keep it up!
